Not only that, but you are probably the worst "schmoozer" within a 30 mile radius of yourself. You're the one who thinks he's getting over on everyone, schmoozing the cute female judge out of her robes with your lack of support for your arguments and your plain-speak when everyone else is wincing while they watch you make a fool of yourself.

Either you are joking or you just proved my point abput the angry left.
Ty took a pass because I think my last little jibe hit too close to home.
This board is a prime example of people compartmentalizing the definition of "win" and missing the bigger picture. Whats a "win" in law? Being the smartest smarty pants with every fact and cite at the ready and appearing the smartest in the room at all times? Of course it is, you risk averse good little lawyer, you. Now, I may be a peacock, and I'm exactly the full of shit salesman you might loathe, but people remember me, and that gets even a young screwhead like me a little bit of business here and there, which the lefty kid sitting in the corner afraid to sound stupid ain't getting. But of course, you'll service whatever business is brought in much better than me. And thats good. For you. But my definition of winning is different than yours. I actually get a much bigger kick out of landing a client than I do in any other endeavor. Its only because I'm bored silly behind a desk that I even write on these boards.
People give money to people based on personality as much as skill. People vote on the same criteria. That may offend you intellectually, but denying it is pretty damn stupid. Stop. Thinking. Like. Such. A. Lawyer.
